Sorry but when you put it like that...


crimes deserve punishment. what I am saying is having a different opinion does not deserve punishment, as its not a crime.

I’m surprised you are still engaging with that kid. He has dodged majority of my arguments and is unable to build one himself except “Pootin bad” and reposting stale memes.

Drink some electrolytes to stay hydrated and avoid a hangover! Also light workout in the morning helps to keep the blood flowing.

You didnt answer my questions, ill bold them:

But why invade? Why not just add Ukraine into Russia through a peaceful referendum to prevent it from rolling into the hands NATO? NATO didnt invade Finland like Russia invaded Ukraine. It was decided by the Finnish parliament after the public opinion shifted in favour of NATO. If you want to be a hard equivalence guy, you could compare Finland joining NATO with the "referendum" in Crimea, too.

Of course NATO wants Ukraine as its member. However, its up for Ukraine to decide: Doesn't Ukraine have the same right to join NATO to it just like Crimea, and later Donbas, joined Russia via referenda? (allegedly)


Why invade? I guess the Russians knew what was going to happen after several rounds of NATO expansion followed by the 2008 NATO (Bucharest) summit followed by Euromaidan in 2014 don't you think? Be honest for once FFS

Finland joining NATO makes sense, Ukraine joining NATO doesn't make sense if you want to argue that NATO is a defensive alliance. Hint: NATO is NOT a defensive alliance because they're prepared to risk all out war with Russia over Ukraine (NATO knows that Ukraine is a red line because they were told so).

If you want to run a defensive alliance (as claimed by NATO) you'll have to accept that your main adversary (Russia) won't like it when you tell the world that Ukraine will become a NATO member in the future (@2008 NATO summit)

I can explain it to you, but I can’t understand it for you:

Russia bravely protecting itself from terrible Nato agression:

Do you know that Ukraine gave up 2000 nukes in exchange of protection from the US, UK, and Russia in a 1994 agreement known as the Budapest Memorandum ?
Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budapest_Memorandum

At a joint press conference in January 2003, Putin responded to a question about Ukraine. “Ukraine is an independent sovereign state, and it will choose its own path to peace and security”

Ukraine is a sovereign country:

The invasion of Ukraine may also have violated international agreements that Russia is a party to, including:
The 1975 Helsinki Final Act, in which the USSR promised not to violate the "territorial integrity" of other signees, including through the use of force. Russia and Ukraine were both created as a result of the USSR's breakup.
The 1994 Budapest Memorandum, in which Russia, the United States, and the United Kingdom agreed "to respect the independence and sovereignty and the existing borders of Ukraine."
The Minsk Agreements, which are a pair of ceasefire agreements signed by Russia and Ukraine relating to the conflict between those countries that began in 2014
